G2 Ocean improves two points in the Sustainability Assessment by EcoVadis and is awarded the Gold rating for the fourth consecutive year.

G2 Ocean today announced that the company has been awarded the gold medal status for its sustainable business practices from the environment, social and governance (ESG) rating organisation, EcoVadis.

G2 Ocean has received a score of 73 of 100 – up 2 points from 2021. Only five per cent of the companies evaluated by EcoVadis met the qualifications for a Gold Rating and the score places G2 Ocean in the top 3% of all companies assessed.

This demonstrates that we not only set targets to improve our sustainability performance but work actively to achieve them,” said Arthur English, Chief Executive Officer at G2 Ocean.

The new score from EcoVadis follows improvements G2 Ocean has made related to ESG efforts, including defining climate ambitions, increasing its commitment to human rights, and implementing a Supplier Risk Management System.

“In line with our commitment to sustainability, we will continue to challenge ourselves to perform to the highest standards for sustainable practices and work on achieving our EcoVadis Platinum Rating ,” English said.
